Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

Chapter 402: Birthday Cake

In the guest room of the Taoist temple, Guo Shao sat on a chair and let out a long breath, wiping the sweat off his brow with his sleeve. Standing in front of him, Fu Jinzhan used his fingers to brush away the wet black hair sticking to the corners of his mouth, randomly gathered it on the top of his head and put on his head. Her skirt was open, the bra inside was messy, and her round shoulders were covered with sweat and glowed with pure white luster. Seeing that Guo Shao was still staring at her, she silently closed the skirt and tied the belt.

"Jinzhan pretends to be the second younger sister and come home with me." Guo Shao couldn't help but suggested.

Fu Jinzhan was bending down to pull down the trouser legs that were curled up around the ankles under the robe, blushing and shaking his head, and said, "It will be discovered, those people in your family who serve the second sister can't tell who is who?"

Guo Shao didn't force it, thinking that he would indeed be discovered. The servant Yuqing grew up with the second sister, so he must have noticed it immediately. Even the two concubines in the family often stayed with the second sister, so it was easy to tell the difference.

Fu Jinzhan said softly: "It's getting late, you will send me back to the palace in a while."

...

In the palace, the second younger sister Fu stuck to Jinzhan that day and didn't know what to say, so she didn't go home and stayed in the palace. This didn't affect Guo Shao's work and rest. On the afternoon of the third day, he went home from the Dianqian Division and took back the order from the pastry shop along the way, and packed it in a food box basket.

Dong Zunhui's family invited a dinner party, because relatives have to be on duty today, and they can only go to celebrate Mrs. Gao's birthday after they get off.

In addition to preparing this pastry, Guo Shao also prepared fifty guan of money as a gift. He took a shower and changed from the military uniform he wore straight up, and put on a more breathable flax uniform. After getting ready, it was still sunny and hot outside, so I spent time in a cool room.

At this time, Guo Shao took out the pair of round earrings from the bag, thought for a while, and found a small mahogany box from the cabinet, and put the earrings in it. The wooden box was placed on the table, Guo Shao took a look, then found a red silk ribbon, tied the box and tied a bow on it. Now he felt very satisfied.

When you were approaching, Guo Shaocai took his things and rode to Dong Zunhui's mansion in a calm manner.

Sure enough, there were not many guests, namely Gao Huaide and his wife, Dong Zunhui and some family members of the Dong family. The Dong family should have relatives, but they are not in Tokyo. The appearance of the mansion is not considered a banquet, it should be a family banquet, Guo Shao is really very happy to be able to join their family members.

Mrs. Dong Gao, Dong Zunhui and others greeted her outside the hall door. Guo Shao saw that she hadn't seen Yijie for a long time, but she was plump. Maybe it was because after returning to Tokyo, she lived a life full of slaves and maidservants. She is in her thirties, tall, and her face is not delicate, but it is very majestic, but her eyes are big and beautiful, and her facial features are good; Gao is actually good-looking, otherwise she would not be snatched by Khitan. If someone like Yang Yue'e, who is as gentle as water, looks like a plate of delicate snacks, then Mrs. Gao will feel like a big fish.

She was wearing a red skirt, which was no different from that of an ordinary lady from aristocratic families; but her tall stature and plump figure gave her a wild look. Yijie's skin in her thirties is of course not as delicate as that of a young lady, but her proper light makeup still makes some details look very energetic; her pampered life also makes her face look very rosy. Coupled with her increasingly plump body, her bulging breasts seemed to burst|explode her top, and she seemed to be on par with Jingniang.

"A small gift is not a respect." Guo Shao smiled and asked for a box to be brought up. Fifty pennies had to be packed in a small box.

Mrs. Gao glared at him, with a smile and a little bit of complaint in her eyes, which made people look very nasty, "They are all from my own family, what is your brother doing with this thing?"

Seeing this look, Guo Shao felt a little complicated for a while. He inevitably thought of the absurd incident with Gao Shi a long time ago. Although Gao Shi said that he pretended it never happened and never mentioned it again, no one can easily forget it... and that complaining expression was the attitude of someone who was very close to him.

Of course, there is no harm in this at all. Mrs. Gao is a close relative of the two generals of the Forbidden Army, and a good sworn relationship is what everyone dreams of.

Gao Huaide clasped his fists to salute, and greeted with a smile. Dong Zunhui also said: "What gift does uncle still give, please come inside."

Every time Guo Shao heard this big man who was not much different from him in age call him uncle, he felt uncomfortable and never got used to it.

Only then did Gao Huaide introduce his wife, and Dong Zunhui also introduced his wives one by one. Guo Shao greeted politely and followed into the hall. Family banquets generally do not invite outsiders, even friends, for this reason. If there are female family members participating, you cannot meet other people's family members if the relationship is not up to that point.

A group of people sat down on a round table, Guo Shao put the food box in his hand on the table, and immediately lifted the lid. A disc-shaped "birthday cake", which is a bit different from modern cakes, but looks similar. There should be little difference in the materials inside, but the cream applied on the outside makes the appearance very similar.

This thing is obviously rather rare, Gao Shi looked over and saw a few words written on the cake with red jam: Congratulations on the birthday.

"Hey!" Gao exclaimed happily, "Your brother really has a heart."

The people around also came to watch in surprise, but the woman did not talk to Gao Shi with a smile. Guo Shao calmly took out three thicker candles and three thinner candles from the box, with sharpened bases under the candles. He put the candles on the cake and said with a smile: "A little skill, just to make sister Yi happy. I should be happy on my sister's birthday today."

Gao smiled from ear to ear: "I have a younger brother, not as good as your sworn brother." Of course, Gao Huaide was not angry.

Guo Shao took a candle and lit it on the lamp stand, and then lit the candles on the cake, and said, "Let's bless Yijie today. On this auspicious day, you close your eyes and make a wish, and then blow out the candles. It will be very effective. This is the fashion in my hometown."

Gao's cheeks were red, and he closed his eyes obediently and a little bit shyly. Guo Shao suddenly clapped his hands and sang: "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..."

When the people around heard his funny singing, they burst out laughing. When Gao heard this, she opened her eyes, Guo Shaoyang raised her chin to signal, then she pursed her vermilion lips again, and closed her eyes gently.

"You have to blow out all the candles in one breath, pay attention." Guo Shao said with a smile.

Gao looked at Guo Shao the same way, then at the lit candle, and blew it over with a "huh". At this moment, Guo Shao took out a wooden box from his bosom, "There is also a small gift, to please Yijie."

"You are really out of shape." Gao looked at the people around him embarrassedly, and had to accept it after a little hesitation. She was a little embarrassed, but when she came out like this, all her relatives were paying attention to her, and being valued by others was not a bad thing after all.

Gao Shi took a look, pulled off the red ribbon very easily, looked at the earrings inside and pondered for a moment. A woman next to her looked curiously, but Gao closed the box immediately and put it in her arms with a blushing face.

At this time, Guo Shao took out a knife and instigated Gao to cut the cake and distribute it to her family members celebrating her birthday. After such a nonsense, everyone didn't pay much attention to it. For a while, they talked and laughed happily, making all kinds of jokes and jokes.

The servants put all kinds of delicacies and wines on the table one after another, and the cups were staggered. As soon as they had wine, Gao Huaide and Dong Zunhui also got excited, and there were endless rhetoric to persuade them to drink, and Guo Shao was no match at all.

At this time, the sky was getting late, and the night outside had completely fallen. The red and yellow lights of the lanterns in the hall were even more beautiful, and there was a lot of noise on the wine table.

The women are just eating and talking and laughing at this time, and then watching the three men drinking and having fun there. Gao Huaide said: "I have tasted the wine, let's carry out the wine orders. What wine orders does Guo Du like to play?"

He is not familiar with the drinking laws of this era. He is a general who quickly climbed up from the bottom, how can he compare with generals from aristocratic families in this respect? But Guo Shao has a way... If the rules are not good for him, he can make the rules himself.

"I have a more interesting way to play." Guo Shao said with a smile.

Gao Huaide waited for the following with great interest. Guo Shao said: "Are there dice in the house?"

Dong Zunhui directly beckoned a servant to come over, gave some orders, and the servant hurriedly left.

Not long after, the servants came to the wine table with dice and dice cylinders. Guo Shao took five dice and threw them in the dice cylinder and shook them: "This kind of game is called step by step (big talk dice)."

The two were very interested when they heard it, the name is really good. Gao Huaide asked: "How did you get promoted step by step?"

Guo Shaosui explained the rules, and after everyone listened to it, Gao Huaide and Dong Zunhui were still a little confused. Gao Shi laughed and said: "I know what it means, brother, I will bet with you a few times and let them see."

"Very good. After a while, everyone will learn it. We can divide into two teams. I, General Gao and Dong Zunhui will be in one team, and you women will be in one team. Otherwise, the two wives will say that Yijie doesn't treat guests well when they haven't had a drink." Guo Shao laughed loudly.

The woman next to Mrs. Gao said: "We seldom drink alcohol. It's not good for a woman to get too drunk. I won't blame my sister."

So Guo Shao and Gao shook a dice cylinder each, Gao opened the dice cylinder with his hand covering his head, raised his eyes, and glanced at Guo Shao: "No peeking!"

Guo Shao chuckled, opened the dice cylinder and took a look: "Five five."

"Isn't it going up?" Gao said.

Guo Shaodao: "I have good points, so I shout high."

Gao smiled and said, "Are you lying to me?" She seemed to be thinking about it, and subconsciously put her index finger under her lips, but her posture was indescribably charming. Guo Shao couldn't help but look at her a few more times.
